On saturday DH and I are going to a wedding at a really posh gentlemans club in Brisbane (Tattersalls?). It starts at 3 and will go on, i assume, till around midnight. Now, I wouldn't exacly say I have a problem with alcohol...it's just I tend not to realise when i'm at the point when I should stop I know we will be having the odd champers from when we start getting ready at friends house till the reception where our table will probably drink quite a bit. My DH and the DH of my friend who we're going with are quite big so can handle their drink. I however am not and i'm really worried that i'm going to drink too much and make a fool out of myself!

What I would like is REALISTIC advice on how to enjoy the long day and still be able to drink. I know you don't have to drink to have fun but it's still fun to drink!!! MIL is coming down to stay and we'll be staying the night with friends so the kids won't be a factor.

I really, really, really don't want to end up on stage with the band singing Spice Girls songs (yes, this has happened before) or throwing up in the loo (yes, has also happened!).

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
